Going to have to give up the VFR, I'm afraid. OK, not "have to", but it would make life easier. Insurance for a year is just over $1K and I already have a track bike that barely sees me, as it is.

I'm looking at about $800.00 for the Givi bags and mounting hardware. I think that the biggest change for me, between the VFR and the ER-6N, will be the suspension. The VFR has been fitted with Gold Valves and a Penske racing shock. I'll take a well suspended bike over horsepower, any day of the week.

Looks good. Looks like a cross between a 650 *and a 1125 buell.

I got the chance to look at the ER-6N and Ninja 650 side-by-side, at a bike show a couple of months ago. They're identical, save for the bodywork.

seat wants to till pelvic region forward = tank crushes your "equipment", especially when you hit bumps?

O ya. The new Z1000 is beautiful.

Rain rain go the fuck away. Had to buy me a frog rain suit at academy. Man, I hope it clears up tomorrow.
